In this episode of Weird Finance, Paco talks to Leo Aquino about their experience immigrating to the United States, their path to becoming a personal finance journalist, how being true to yourself can translate into earning more money, the impact of anti-trans bills on trans people's finances, and advice for taking small actions towards personal financial transformation and social change. Leo Aquino (@queerandtranswealth)​​ is a poet, screenwriter, storyteller, and award-winning journalist covering anti-capitalist personal finance. This episode also features The Economic Outlook with financial astrologer Susan Gidel. Susan, our resident economic cosmonaut, does what many humans have done before us for thousands of years: she looks to the stars to understand our economic present and predict our financial futures.
